It's OK, DM, don't worry. The Vital Spark didn't just come through the house giggling stupidly and tell me to read it, so I didn't...

Honest.

Well I wasn't going to say anything, because DM is a good friend, and I wouldn't want him to feel embarrassed that he didn't know how to measure a screen.

So I haven't told anyone (apart from Parahandy, of course).

His 'secret' is safe with me. :wink:

I keep getting spam emails aimed at people who are somehow deficient in inches; do you thing they can tell how big your monitor is?

Oh Thank Heavens! I was really so worried that the news might have reached you there already...

It really is quite embarassing for us lot who live near Hua Hin. Please don't tell a soul, for humanitarian reasons, you understand.

It would be terribly embarrassing if this was to be mentioned in the Observer where it says whats been talked about on HHAD.

Imagine the shame. :oops:

I was in Big C in Rayong today and no joke, they asked for assistance in the electronics department to measure a computer screen. I guess the news has made it all the way over here. :P Pete :cheers:
